Just moved to Colorado and the place I rent has antron carpet....perfect! I've been looking more into alternative materials and ways to cut costs on tying. The only real thing that gets me so far is fibbets, I want to experiment this year to see if those thin wispy tails really make a difference for fish, but right now am looking for a good substitute. Any ideas?

I'm curious to see what your landlord is going to say when he finds bald spots all over his carpets.
